Hello, sunshines! Welcome to this video where I'm going to give you a quick view to the structure
00:00:00
and types of the conditionals. But let's start with the common features. For a conditional
00:00:05
sentence to be a conditional sentence, it has to have two parts. A condition, or a setting,
00:00:13
which we're going to call just the if part, and a consequence, or a result, which is the
00:00:19
no if part. The condition needs to happen for the consequence to take place as well.
00:00:27
We have no condition, then we have no consequence. It's as simple as that.
00:00:37
Now, is the order always going to be condition-consequence? No. The order can
00:00:42
change. The trick is to find the if, or the equivalent word, to the if in the sentence,
00:00:48
and this way we can know if the order is condition-consequence or consequence-condition.
00:00:58
If the if goes at the beginning of the sentence, then it's going to be condition-consequence.
00:01:05
If it is somewhere in the middle of the sentence, then it's most likely going to be consequence-
00:01:10
But if the order is condition-consequence, or setting-result, or if-no-if, then we must write a comma after the if.
00:01:16
Now, I'm saying if, if, if all the time.
00:01:29
If is the Spanish sí del condicional, el sí sin tilde.
00:01:33
No es el sí de afirmación, sino de si pasa esto, ocurrirá lo otro, porque eso es un condicional y es lo que estamos viendo.
00:01:38
but there are other ways to introduce the condition one is whether which is a posh and
00:01:44
educated and polite way to say if and the other one is unless and unless works in a different way
00:01:52
so let me give you an example with if and with unless so that you can see the difference
00:02:01
If you study, you will get good marks
00:02:09
Unless you study, you will not get good marks
00:02:13
In Spanish we say, we translate normally unless as a no ser
00:02:18
Entonces, si nos fijamos en el ejemplo que os acabo de poner
00:02:25
Si estudias, sacarás buenas notas
00:02:29
A no ser que estudies, no sacarás buenas notas
00:02:31
Cuando utilizamos unless o a no ser
00:02:34
Estamos reflejando que la condición que expresamos debe darse, pero es como que ahí no se va a dar y por lo tanto tampoco se va a dar el resultado.
00:02:37
¿De acuerdo? Si estudias, sacarás buenas notas. A no ser que estudies, no sacarás buenas notas.
00:02:50
Good. Let's move on. Let's start with the types. And the first conditional that we're seeing is the zero conditional.
00:02:56
on now when do we use this we use this with things that always happen when the condition
00:03:03
takes place when the condition happens as in rules of nature as in science as in law
00:03:10
the structure is very simple we can have the condition with if or unless or even when plus
00:03:16
the verb in present simple and the result is going to be also in present simple, okay?
00:03:26
So one example is if you heat water above 100 degrees, it boils.
00:03:36
Si calientas agua por encima de 100 grados, hierve.
00:03:48
And we use the present simple on both because it's something that always happens no matter where, no matter what.
00:03:53
OK.
00:03:59
Now, the next conditional is the first conditional.
00:04:01
We're starting to change things a little bit.
00:04:04
We use it with things that are very, very, very likely to happen given the condition, but it's not 100% sure.
00:04:06
There is a high probability.
00:04:13
We also use it to plan things or to foresee.
00:04:15
Foresee means predecir.
00:04:20
OK.
00:04:22
um the way it works is we can have we have the condition with if or unless plus the verb in
00:04:22
present simple as we did on the zero conditional and the result can go in future simple or it can
00:04:32
go in the form of an imperative if we want to give someone an order like if someone calls
00:04:40
tell them I'm in the shower
00:04:50
Si me llama alguien, di que estoy en la ducha
00:04:54
Podemos dar órdenes usando el primer condicional
00:04:58
convirtiendo el verbo del resultado en un imperativo
00:05:02
The next conditional is the second conditional
00:05:07
and we use it with things that are not very likely to happen
00:05:11
and with hypotheses and theories that we want to test
00:05:16
okay so the um condition in blue the if and less part is always going to be in past simple
00:05:20
in spanish we would use the subjunctive but in english the subjunctive is the past simple
00:05:30
but there is a particularity and it's with the verb to be because it is always going to be
00:05:36
were, regardless of the subject. Remember the song If I Were a Richmond or Beyonce's song
00:05:45
If I Were a Boy? And then the result goes with would plus a verb or with the modals could or
00:05:55
might plus verb. And the verb goes as it is. Again, let's go back to Beyonce's song If I Were a Boy.
00:06:06
I would roll out of bed in the morning, that's the first two lines of the song, and then she says
00:06:15
in the chorus, if I were a boy, I think I could understand, so the verb doesn't change,
00:06:23
it goes like that, and we add the would and could, okay? Finally, the last conditional,
00:06:32
the third conditional we use it for things that are impossible because they are past
00:06:39
and we can't change them now okay um this is the um the conditional we use for things like guilt
00:06:45
like regret as i call it in spanish
00:06:54
El condicional de los golpes en el pecho es el que usamos para la culpa, para los arrepentimientos, para hablar de cosas que son inamovibles porque ya están pasadas y no podemos cambiarlas.
00:06:57
Y simplemente estamos diciendo cosas que podrían haber ocurrido universos alternativos en los que podrían haber pasado cosas que no han pasado porque no ha ocurrido la condición.
00:07:10
And how do we form it?
00:07:31
Basically the same way as in Spanish.
00:07:33
The condition that now can only go with if, there is no unless here, there is no when,
00:07:35
only if or whether, plus past perfect, okay?
00:07:43
And remember the past perfect was formed with had plus the past participle, either ed for
00:07:49
regular verbs or the third column for irregular verbs, and the result also goes imperfect.
00:07:56
So we have would have, plus participle, could have, plus participle, or might have, plus participle.
00:08:02
And, well, I always like to give an example here, like, if I had known that you liked me, I would have asked you out long ago.
00:08:14
Si yo hubiera sabido que te gustaba, te habría pedido salir hace mucho tiempo
00:08:28
So that's it for today
00:08:35
I'm planning on recording specific videos for each conditional type
00:08:39
Although I don't think I will record a video for the zero type
00:08:44
Because it's very, very, very easy
00:08:49
I may mix it with the first conditional
00:08:51
but yeah this is just a short quick overview introduction for you to start having a look
00:08:55
at your notes all right see you in class bye
